I'm not a big fan of tuna, but I loved this casserole. The potatoes and leeks were cooked to perfection, and the sauce was flavorful and creamy. I'll definitely be making this again.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it was much better. I also think it would be good with some shredded cheese on top.

This casserole was a bit too heavy for my taste. The potatoes and leeks were a bit mushy, and the sauce was a bit too thick. I think I would have preferred it with a lighter sauce.

This casserole was easy to make and very flavorful. I used canned tuna, but I think it would be even better with fresh tuna. The potatoes and leeks were cooked perfectly, and the sauce was creamy and delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This casserole was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less tuna. The potatoes and leeks were cooked well, but the sauce was a bit too thin.

I've made this casserole several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's a great way to use up leftover tuna, and it's also very budget-friendly.

This casserole was easy to make and turned out great! I used frozen peas instead of leeks, and it was still delicious. My husband and kids loved it.
